The Sky Is Crying

~ Release by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble (see all versions of this release, 17 available)

Annotation

Bought in Australia but the only real sign that this is an Australian release is the Australian barcode. The disc runout says says "DADC Austria".

(There seem to be multiple variants with the same barcode; I have a version where the disc says "Manufactured in Australia for Sony Music Entertainment (Australia) Limited")
